"Another repair service told me that the entire board would have to be replaced at about $250. Crystal replaced only that part of the board that needed to be replaced" ...More at a little more than half the price of the entire board. I'm sure it took more time to troubleshoot the defective part(s) than it would have to simply remove and replace the entire board. I took the set in on a Friday and picked it up the following Tuesday morning. It comes with a 30-day guarantee, but at this time, and on the first day of having the set back in place at home, I have no reason to believe that the repair won't last. Perhaps I'll follow up in a month or so and let readers know if it's still working!

from the front office has always been pleasant and polite and helpful. (This was my third experience with Crystal). Technicians

and

were helpful, polite, and took the time to answer my questions -- always appreciated. They will pick up equipment and bring it back when done for only $25 round trip -- that's a deal! -- and I wish I had known that before today! I don't think I could have handled anything larger than a 37" by myself, but they took it out of my car for me when I took it in and put it back in my car and helped me secure it today to bring it home.
It is a nice family business that treats people fairly. If they don't fix it or can't fix it (parts may no longer be available for older equipment), they don't charge you a penny, not even a diagnostic fee. If the equipment is old and OEM parts are not available and the manufacturer no longer supports it, they will try to find replacement parts for you on the open

. You can't beat that kind of service these days, and it's something the big box stores would never do. For music aficionados like me who still have record and/or CD players that need repair, Crystal is the only game in town.
I highly recommend

My experience if it is less than a 48" screen the screen replacement cost exceeds the cost of buying a new one. Flat screens are mucho prone to damage from impact, I found out the same lession. Good Luck

Wow - I am jealous - a 40 foot LCD TV - that is what you call an mancave or NBA Arena (No Boys Allowed).

Seriously, the main board for a 40" Polaroid runs about $25-75 depending on model - bear in mind these are not typically slip-in socket boards - you are likely to have to disconnect and reconnect a number of wire connectors, and may have to do some soldering of connections. Google this search term - there are a number of companies selling them on the web - you will have to expand the search phrase with your exact model number to narrow the search - 40" Polaroid LCD TV main board

One thing to do first is call Polaroid - there are a number of comments on the web about a pending class action suit about Polaroid LCD TV main boards catching fire, and several commenters say that Polaroid sent a repairman to their home and replaced the main board for free when it failed, so you might try that first.

We have temporarily closed our Marketplace while we are remodeling it. If you have any items currently posted for sale, they will no longer be visible online. We apologize for any inconvenience and we will let you know when this portion of our website is open for business again.

In the meantime I would advise utilizing services such as Craig's List or Goodwill.

Please let me know if I can assist further. You can respond to this thread or submit a new Answers post. You can also reach us at memberservices@angieslist.com. We're open weekdays from 8:00 am - 9:00 pm and Saturdays 8:00 am - 5:00 pm ET.

He is the most honest repair man I have ever come across. I had him fix the dish problem we had, very good person to deal with, I would highly recommend him to anyone. Also he repiared a TV that I thought was worthless but he was very honest and gave it back to use when it was fixed.”

Stay Far Away from this vendor. Worst experience of Angie's List to date after use approximately 25 vendors form the Central Florida area. Contacted

on 09/02/13 after several of my electronic items in my home were damaged during a lighting storm to see if they could repair my

. I asked and was ...More told they would provide a free estimate for the repairs and come to my home to pick-up the

. My initial contact went well, the gentleman picked up the

on 09/04/203 and was on-time for his appointment. However everything went way down hill from this point, as once they have your

the hold it for ransom. The problem began when my insurance agent contacted them to ask a question about the estimate they prepared. They immediately called me and stated they need $45 to provide the insurance agent a professional type estimate with part numbers for review. I also requested a copy of the estimate to determine what I was paying and received the original hand-written estimate with two lines added saying lightning damage. Very unprofessional, so they charged me $45 to add two sentences to the original estimate that they claimed was free. 2nd issue when they requested the fee of $45 I agreed and ask for them to repair the

and return it and at that time I would provide full payment to which they refused and want ed the $45 upfront. After 5 weeks of waiting for a new part the come in after being on back order they once again called to say the part they received was damaged and the would need to increase the original estimate another $50 to order a new part. THIS COMPANY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON ANGIE"S LIST. CROOKS..stay away as of today 09/24/2013 after 20 days I still do not have my

back from the crooks who at every opportunity attempt to increase the price. Told them to bring my

back and I have not heard from them”

I called

late in the day on a Wednesday and described my sound problem. He came out to my house the next day and methodically troubleshot the problem until he isolated the problem to my cable box. Because I am in a wheelchair, he was nice enough to stay until I called Brighthouse in case they needed me to disconnect the box. ...More They reset my cable box and the problem was fixed. I should add that

suggested that the problem might be the cable box when I called him the night before. However, I was so anxious to be sure the TV was fixed before the weekend, I asked him to come out and check everything. I mistakenly had more faith in the culprit being my 10-yr old TV than the cable box.”

Arrived when they said they would, told us what the probably problem was and took

to shop for repair. They provided us with and estimate. Two days later they informed us that the rebuilt part was unavailable, and recommended the more expensive of two parts that were available because the cheaper one did not include a protection ...More device that the more expensive one had. They also informed us that since the cost was more than the extimate, they would bring back the

as is with absolutely no charge. More that fair, however Itold them to order part and repair it. That was on a Thursday, and they repaired and delivered the

the following Monday. Might be my imagination, but I thought the picture was better than when they took it in. Company was very professional, both from the office and at my door. I do commercial installations of Direct

and people are always asking if I could recommend a

repair shop. I have been unable to do that for a long time, but it is good to know that I will have no problem recommending

WOW!!! Big Screen (61 inch) TV needed repair - Came the day after I called. Was given estimate in home, and then they took TV to shop. Was contacted next day - original estimate was a little off, so they wanted to verify I would still want the TV fixed at the slightly higher price (due to part costing a little more). The gentleman who called explained, ...More in great detail, what the problem with the TV was, and what the fix was, and how long it would take. TV was fixed and returned several days earlier than expected, which was great. All in all, the experience with

TV was above and beyond what I expected - they were great!!! I wont hesitate to use them again in the future if the need arises (which I hope it doesn't)!!!”

The Crystal rep came to my house within two hours of my initial call. He took the

to the shop for repairs. After 5 days it was determined that there was more wrong than was worth fixing. They disposed of the

for me, and sold me one of their pre-owned sets at a verygood price. I found out later that ...More I could have had a loaner

while mine was in the shop. My ONLY complaint is that they didn't mention that they had loaners when I first sent the

to the shop. I was very impressed by their overall service and would recommend them to others.”

Everything was as he told us-did not charge any additional for driving to our location. He was professional and told us exactly what we needed to hear. Our TV was only 5 years old but we decided not to spend $300 repariring a TV that was on it's last leg. Please correct his address:
